Charly Martin heads to Jacksonville

Martin, the wide receiver who was waived by the Seahawks in July, claimed by the 49ers and then waived by San Francisco yesterday, has been claimed by the Jaguars.

This is Martin’s second stint in Jacksonville, where he was on the practice squad for the final four weeks of the 2011 season. Martin has also spent time with the Chargers and Panthers in his NFL career.

In college Martin was a dominant Division II receiver, leading all of Division II as a senior at West Texas A&M with 95 catches for 1,867 yards and 22 touchdowns. In the NFL he hasn’t had a lot of playing time, catching just five passes for 48 yards.

Well I guess Gus saw something in Seattle. Maybe he burned Sherman in practice one day. Does not sound like the fix for our WR corps. But at this point, Ace Sanders is looking like our #1 & he’s a rookie, so I don’t care who we get while we’re still at 90 players.

Martin is a gritty receiver and fun to watch play. Wih him the best in Jagsville.

Cecil Shorts III is the #1 in Jacksonville. (& bring on the laughter, but the dude can play).
